Flush... with your foot.

Photographed at a nursing home in Damyang County (담양군), South Jeolla Province (전라남도), South Korea (대한민국), this bathroom enables occupants to flush the toilet by stepping on the button on the floor.

A room with a view...

Photographed at the train station in Wonju (원주시), Gangwon Province (강원도), South Korea (대한민국), this men's room has a view. In fact, it is not uncommon, in Korea, to be standing at a urinal with a view to the outside. This means, of course, that anyone you see can also see you. Also keep in mind that this is a medium-sized facility. In a small bathroom a urinal might be right next to the open door.

Seat Up or Seat Down?

At the CGV movie theater in Andong (안동시), North Gyeongsang Province (경상북도), South Korea (대한민국), a skirt isn't enough to differentiate the men's bathroom from the women's. If the toilet seat is up, that restroom must be for men. If the toilet seat is down, that restroom must be for women. Out of curiosity, what happen when a man really has to go? Can he put the toilet seat down or does he get to use the women's room?

#1 or #2?

To save water, this toilet offers two kinds of flushes. Depress the handle on the side facing you for a lighter flush post-urination, and depress the handle on the side facing away from you for a stronger flush post-defecation.

Lady?

The sign reads "lady" and the hair seems to match, but the stream raises questions.

Just go on the floor.

Photographed in the basement convenience store of a building somewhere in northern Seoul (서울시), or just north of Seoul, South Korea (대한민국), this section of the bathroom floor is the toilet. Though not easily visible due to poor lighting, urine drains through a hole in the wall into the ground under the building. The pan and water pipe allow you to "flush." For defecation, employees and customers go upstairs and use, presumably, more familiar bathroom facilities.

I want to play a game.

This photo was not staged. Someone did this as a joke in a workplace bathroom and, remarkably, everyone left it there for many months. To our knowledge, it may still be there.

The key elements are the image of Billy and his tricycle from the Saw movie franchise, the handwritten phrase "I want to play a game," and the roll of duct tape in place of a roll of toilet paper.
